If you will take the trouble to ex amine some correct map of the two states, New-York and Pennsylvania, you will then stop your preaching to the Philadelphians about turnpike roads. ~ The trade of the western country mast unavoidably centre at New York ; and I think that 1 will prove this assertion to y$nir satisfaction. ?

The fertile territory included within the bounds of its own state, and in creasing so rapidly in Its popul ' is in itself sufficient to pve it magnitude : but a water oommunlca. Gon between the North river and the vmfero waters, will enlarge the tract and population commercially depen dent upon it, in si least a ten ibid proportion. The western parts at Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennes see, Indiana.
